Which of the following is a vertical line?
Which of the following is a vertical line?
A vertical line is one in which the 
values can vary. Namely, there is only one possible value for 
, and 
can be any number. Thus, by this description, the only vertical line listed is 
.
A vertical line is one in which the

Which of the following has a slope of 0?
Which of the following has a slope of 0?
A line with a slope of zero will be horizontal. A horizontal line has only one possible value for 
, and 
can be any value.
Thus, the only given equation which fits this description is
